In May 2018 IPEC-Americas acquired ExcipientFest Americas and re-branded it "Excipient World". According to the organizers "Excipient World will continue the tradition of producing high quality education for all pharmaceutical professionals interested on the business, science, quality and safe use of excipients, as well as presenting a marketplace to connect buyers with industry suppliers to fuel global sales of excipients and new product innovations for years to come."
The next event takes place May 6-8, 2019 in the Gaylord National Resort and Convention Center - Washington, DC.
IPEC-Americas is the leading industry association that develops, implements, and promotes global use of appropriate quality, safety, and functionality standards for pharmaceutical excipients and excipient delivery systems.
